How did you get into CrossFit? I was introduced to CrossFit/ CrossFit Lawrence by Lisa (Blomquist) Morel. After my first session, I haven’t looked back 🙂

More about Melinda:

“After dealing with a running injury, at 18 I was introduced to the world of holistic healing through acupuncture. Then began my journey with yoga in 2002. Around 2008, I found deep inspiration for yoga here in Lawrence and committed myself to the practice. I firmly believe in yoga’s profound lesson of cultivating strength and openness on and off the mat. Similarly, with CrossFit, I find balance and agility that easily translates to life outside the box. Combining the two, in my opinion, has made me a better human.”
